I Want to be Recognized by Others

It’s your desire to be seen in a positive light by others, but others will have their own feelings on how they perceive you.

Wanting others to perceive you in a certain way is your attempt to try and control how others feel.

You will feel freer and lighter simply by accepting that others get to choose how they perceive you.
